Got anything that hasn't been debunked or has a source to the original context?

Not a fan, but may he rest in piece and condolences to his family.

As an example of what those who didn't like the man, or his politics, this post stands as a sterling example.

Well said, sir.

The left is the party of hate. All you have to do is listen to what they say.

You'll never hear those kinds of things said by the right.

I don't ever want to be the guy who dances on someones grave. At least not for opinions/speech/ideology. I might feel different about a mass murderer.

Thanks for showing some class and compassion

There's free speech, and then there's just plain rude, and out of place. There is a difference.

It's still protected. I don't like it one bit but I'm willing to say they have the right to behave like total dirtbags.

Yeah, it isn't against the law to have zero class.

We agree on the exception.

It’s sad when anyone passes.

Good people because they will be missed,
Bad people because it’s a life with potential wasted.

Both have family and friends that don’t deserve to be ridiculed in their time of loss.

I was a daily listener for over a decade.

Had caught bits and pieces prior to that, but not regularly. The last three decades was exactly what America needed, when it was needed. More than just talent was on loan from God, his wisdom was also.

He was one of those who knew, who tried...

For better, or for worse, the man said what he thought.

Was he always right? No. Did I always agree with him? Not even remotely.

But his passing, as with all such things, leaves a void in others lives that, in the case of his family, are impossible to fill. A dad. A brother. A freind. Those are tough niches to fill when they suddenly become empty.

My condolences to his family, and freinds.

It is protected.

However, common decency should, though apparently it's somewhat lacking, tell one that it truly is unacceptable behavior, and certainly says nothing good about those who would do such things.

I'm not disagreeing.

The point the other poster was attempting to make and failed doing was that this was comparable to a private enterprise blocking people on social media.

I know. It, apparently, needs saying a lot today. Just as it will when Hillary Clinton passes on, or Obama, or even Dan Qualye.

Some folks need refreshers.

They'll be after Tucker even more now.

Tucker is no Rush. Rush actually had a way to make you think about what he said and yes he said a few things here and there that me as a leftist will make my blood boil but I don't think his talent relied on saying things to OwN THe Libs. Rush was a vivid, rabid, hyper enthusiastic conservative and his talent was saying things that energize conservatives. I respect people like Rush even if I despise some of the things he says.

Tucker is a joke, he was a joke back in his CNN days and he still a joke now. He will never have the command, style and presence that Rush had. Rush is a once in a generation talent.

A man who told his listeners that smoking doesn’t kill, died from smoking today. RIP to a man who made a living off of literal fake news and lying to people. Who helped pave the way for the divided country we live in.

The world will be a better place without him.

What? 95% of the media is not enough for the left? The division started in 2012 with Obama and fueled by the tech giants and Congress, so I don't think Rush had much of a slice of that pie.
